Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double Eye Springs - 3-1/4" Tall Front/Center/Rear
Shipped fast looks good will be putting it on my trailer this weekend.
I bought the spring kit to put on my home built trailer that I put my old heavy slide-in camper on. It more than met my expectations. There was no sway at 75mph or on the 5 mile trail back to camp.

Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs - 1-1/2" Front/Rear, 2-1/2" Center
Great fit. I called to ask what I needed and etrailer made the right suggestions. Fast and friendly service for you trailer needs.
Rec'd item quickly along with new wheels I purchased. Items were packed very well. I installed my new wheels, tires, and equalizer kit the following weekend and my trailer was ready to go.

Curved Equalizer for 1-3/4" Double Eye Spring - 7-3/4" Long - 9/16" Hole
Exact fit, good description. After a year it's holding up well with constant use.
Replaced my old equalizers with these and they have worked great without an issue; this is a one year review since my purchase of these trailer parts. To anyone considering these - they have worked great for me on my boat trailer.

Front/Center/Rear Hanger for Double-Eye Springs - 3-1/4" Tall - 9/16" Bolt Hole
These hangers are great for the center. They provide just enough clearance for your equalizer. Because of the length and being that I am a welder I added a support inside the hanger to keep them rigid!
Megan was very helpful with helping get this order together and communicating with parts being shipped from other locations. Thank you so very much Megan!!!!

Front/Center/Rear Hanger for Double-Eye Springs - 4-1/4" Tall - 9/16" Bolt Hole
These were purchased to assist with raising a dual-axle travel trailer. They arrived well packaged, and looked to be well made.They took readily to welding, so there was no issue with inferior material. The attached images show them being welded side-by-side to the frame rail extensions, then the entire assembly attached to the main frame.
My order was supposed to arrive on Saturday by Monday evening I had not received it I called the lady was very apologetic and said she would research it. She took care of everything and it was here. They were very helpful .!! the part was exactly what I needed Would definitely recommend them for their personnel and their follow up

MORryde 14-3/4" Shock Absorbing Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailers w/ 42" Wheelbase - 8K
I have not towed with it yet. But the installation went pretty smooth. I also installed the Morryde shackle kit. Everything looks heavy duty. The only thing is that 4 of the wet bolts were too long. I had to add 1/2 inch thick heavy duty washers to pull the Splined end of the bolts in. Shipping was good as always.
After 1 year and several trips…awesome!!! However I also installed a”wet” bolt kit and shocks…. W-H-A-T a difference!!! All from etrailer. All trailers should come like this!! 2021 271RL Salem Hemisphere

Timbren Silent Ride Suspension for Tandem Axle Trailers w/ 3" Round Axles - 14,000 lbs
Been great so far..fabbed removable axle system with the timbrens
Seems like a great product and service was excellent. UPS lost one of the three parts and was a week long in delivering it, and then said that it was because it was packaged poorly from etrailer. I used a 4x6 steel rectangular tube spacer to get my trailer back up to the original height. Seemed pretty straight forward, but it would be nice if the system could be designed so the user doesn't have to cut the mounting brackets off the axle and re-attach the Timbren brackets.

Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers - Double Eye Springs - Tandem Axle - 6K to 8K
Looked at another brand, decided I liked the Lippert better. Although it was $[XX] more than where I started I was willing to pay the extra due to it having a variable width and it being heavier built than the product I was looking at. Paula was excellent in assisting me with this product, (4) springs, u bolts, wet blots / shackle kit.
These will be going back. Lippert did a terrible job prepping these for shipment. They showed up with evidence of metallic grinding, dropping, and less than a quality piece. The bubble wrap that was around the pieces wouldn’t protect a Christmas ornament from the dollar tree. Definitely not going on my trailer like this.

Timbren Silent Ride Suspension for Tandem Axle Trailers w/ 3" Round Axles - 7,000 lbs
I used these to replace the leaf springs and equalizers on a 20’ gooseneck cattle trailer that I rebuilt. The ride is great and the usual rattling and clanging of the trailer going down the gravel road is gone. So far I am very happy with the ease of installation and the performance of the suspension. I guess only time will tell about the durability of the rubber components in the long run.
Happy with the online ordering.

Dexter E-Z Flex Suspension Kit - Double-Eye Springs - Tandem Axle - 6,000 lbs
Great price. Easy install. The trailer is quiet when the suspension is articulating around tight turns and going over speed bumps. And peace of mind knowing the worn out bushings are gone.
Customer service, response, shipping and ease of doing business are all top of class. The product is solid but kudos to the eTrailer staff for helping me out with a quality issue with one of the shackle assemblies. eTrailer has earned all my future business. It's great piece of mind to know they stand behind the products they sell.

Dexter Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for 2" Slipper Springs - 38" Axle Spacing
This kit (a dual kit) changed my view of Dexter as a quality-first manufacturer. etrailer simply sells it, they don't make it, so they aren't to blame. This kit is made specifically for mounting Dexter's General Duty 9,000 lb axles in tandem and is different from kits made for 3500 to 8000 lb axles. It provides extra axle tube to frame clearance to accommodate the 4" axle tubes used on their 9k and 10k GD axles. It uses beefy 7/8" equalizer pivot bolts and 5/8" spring eye bolts. So far, so good. Until you pay over $350 for it and receive a suspension kit with absolutely ZERO lubrication provisions! Seriously, Dexter?!! The bolts provided are all just grade 5 hardware store plain jane dry bolts. Not even grade 8. Dexter sells 7/8" greaseable "wet bolts" and even their lighter-duty hanger kits include greaseable wet bolts. But even if I paid etrailer the nearly $XX apiece they want for them (they're half that price elsewhere), there is literally no way of putting a square-shouldered carriage-style bolt, which they are, in the round roles this hanger kit was manufactured with without modification. As for the 5/8" spring eye bolts, only a great deal of internet searching will find any wet bolts the right diameter, and they'll be the wrong length. Those 4 bolts are about $20 each plus shipping. So, by the time I pay a machine shop to square the equalizer bracket holes on and buy all the wet bolts, or have them made, JUST so I can lubricate this expensive hanger kit in hopes of it lasting more than a very short time on a trailer that often grosses 20k, I'm going to have over $500 invested in it, not counting all the extra wasted down-time. This kit was supposed to solve my trailer suspension problems, not create more. FAIL!!
I purchased the 7 leaf sliper spring to replace my old ones. etrailer had all the parts needed to rebuild my trailer. The parts fit perfectly. The people there are very knowledgeable about the trailer parts and what is needed and what will fit when replacing old worn parts. I would stronly recomend etrailer for any of your trailer needs.

Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers - 1-3/4" Wide Double-Eye Springs
I really wanted to give this kit a 5 star review, however it fell short in more than one way. The parts are very nice and heavy duty looking and went together purrty good. However, when I went to grease the shackles none took grease it just came out around the fitting, so I changed the end on my grease gun thinking it was just worn out, still same problem. I had to hold the fitting on the zirk as hard as I could and finally got them to take grease, one still hasn't taken grease and not sure what I'm going to do. I left all hardware loose to this point to make sure there was no un nessesary pressure on anything hoping it would take grease easy. It's like the heads of the zirks are a size to small. After greasing everything the best I could I tightened everything up, during this process I had 2 nuts that the threads pulled out of... Just as they got tight they started to loosen up, I was using a standard length 1\2 drive craftsman ratchet, and I'm not hulk. I ended up having a few nuts and washers that worked but still this shouldn't have happened. Makes me wonder about the rest of the metals strength. Looks heavy duty but I'm starting to wonder about longevity.
After receiving my shipment yesterday, I was concerned that parts may have been missing due to the shape of the shipping box and the lack of packing material. During the installation of the shackles, the third shackle nuts/bolts stripped out when tightened by hand. The shackle had to be cut off since the nuts could not be properly tightened. I have emailed etrailer with this issue and hopefully we can resolve the issue quickly.

Lippert Tandem Axle Equa-Flex AP Kit - Wet Bolts - 3-1/8" Long Shackles
Overall, very disappointed in how well these hold up. The grease holes in the wet bolts constantly plug up. Our trailer is used on a daily basis and I started off with a monthly schedule to grease. They were all plugged. Had to take them apart to unplug them and it was too late, they were already wearing into the bushings. Fixed that, tried a weekly grease schedule. Same thing, repeat. Every other day now I'm greasing them. Still plugging up, not everyone, but at least half. I'm tired of taking these apart to unplug the grease holes after every trip. I'm using an electric grease gun and it will either max out the pressure and bypass, or actually crack the zerk fitting and leak grease everywhere. I have tried everything to prevent the wet bolts from plugging, but to no avail. The grease hole in the wet bolt is packing with bushing material. I have tried numerous types of grease and nothing has helped. Also, the knurling on the wet bolt where they are supposed to be pressed into the shackle plate, does not help either. This wears very quickly and starts wearing out the shackle plate. I am averaging a set (plus bushings) every 4 months. While this seems like a good idea, functionality wise, it does not work. But I guess they're better than the standard shackle bolts where the only grease they'll ever see is on initial installation. Sorry I don't have any photos as I am usually irritated with grease all over my hands taking these back apart I don't bother to grab my phone.

Dexter E-Z Flex Suspension Kit - Double-Eye Springs - Tandem Axle - 8,000 lbs
We broke down on a Saturday near Cincinnati and couldn't find any parts, so I called etrailer and luckily they had a wet bolt kit in stock. They shipped it next day, which means business day, next day, aka Tuesday " thanks UPS ". I had the kit installed by a mobile mechanic and I was back on the road by 3:30pm.
Had to replace the axles and decided while there, just do the whole suspension too. Got the axles directly from Dexter but purchased the suspension kit from etrailer. Replacing the equalizer was the easiest part of this project and if I didn't have to replace the axles, probably would have had it done in under 2 hours. Time will tell how well it rides and the tires wear.

Road Armor Shock Absorbing Equalizer Kit - Tandem Axle - Qty 2
Installed these with the Dexter Bronze Bushings and Lippert AP wet bolt kit. No more clanking and banging from the trailer going down the road and especially making tight turns.
I would give these equalizers 5 stars for performance but due to packaging I will drop them to a 4 star. Our trailer tows considerably better after installing these. After a bump, the trailer smooths out without the chucking that I was used to. Packaging wise, the bolts from one equalizer marred the powder coated finish of the other in transit.
What our customers are saying:
"Received already. Yeow! Perfect fit. Thanks for getting the kit to me so quickly."
